Palin shores up the conservative Republican base. Romney doesn’t and I’ll be furious if an idiot like Huckabee or a REAL nobody like Pawlenty is chosen.
I think it will be Romney. But how much of an impact will this have? The dems are already trying to say that Biden comes from working class joes (though I’m sure he swimming in money now!) and Romney is rich and wealthy. Hannity wants Romney to be on the ticket (though I don’t understand why he supports the just turned conservatives over established ones; He supported Arnold in the recall here in CA over McClintock and well those of us who live in California know that Arnold’s a Democrat (won’t even call him a RINO).
Romney: Has potential to bring states in play (MI)
Palin, Jindal, Hunter, Thompson all these guys and gals that Freepers have talked about will get the base really behind them but will any of them bring any states in play that may go to Obama.
